The Grassroots Theatre conducted Story Circles, small groups of people who would sit in a circle and tell stories or remembrances. The performances documented in this series include \"Walk Together Children,\" a play about Williamsburg during the Civil Rights Era in the 1950s and 1960s; \"Community Ties,\" a play about the Kingspoint, Mooretown Road, and Brook Haven neighborhoods; and, a project to document 20th Century history of Williamsburg through story circles with retired school teachers, church historians, the African-American community, and others. Not all of the oral histories in this series have written transcripts and access to the original recordings may be limited due to the condition of the original recordings.
